"The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars," which was released in 1972, introduced Bowie's alter identity, Ziggy Stardust, to the public. Bowie's dramatic performances and the album's concept story pushed the limits of glam rock, influencing both music and design. Bowie's transgender character Ziggy Stardust blurred the boundaries between gender and identity during the glam rock era and went on to become a legendary figure. The character's impact is still evident in modern music and fashion. The album's song "Starman," whose lyrics encourage future generations to value uniqueness and self-expression, came to represent hope for the LGBTQ+ community.
